Posted July 30, 2013 I think I know what I'm doing most of the time and some of the time, not so much. This ad screams fake to me. http://denver.backpage.com/FemaleEscorts/bolutly-mzing-plmt-23/12884673 Yet when I google the number and pictures, I come up with nothing. What would you do to research this in a smarter way. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What would you do to research this in a smarter way. Sometimes you just have to go with your gut. If the ad "screams" fake (and rightfully so), then I doubt anything you could turn up with even the best research would persuade you otherwise. You don't need proof that the ad is fake to know it is fake. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 30, 2013 "Me and my friends are on AFF soooo you can find us all on there if you want" BIG red flag... Questionable photo hits... Seriously??? Sorry this wasn't more clear. ie "Not a 411". I know it's not legit. But I think my research skills could use improvement. So what is the methodology in their research to arrive at the same conclusion. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 30, 2013 She's fake alright....she's a fake blonde for sure....she looks like a fake white girl (maybe with Amerindian and/or African DNA). 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 30, 2013 "Yet when I google the number and pictures, I come up with nothing" Should have been more clear... That is what I was commenting "seriously" on. Just googling the number & pics brought up lots of results that indicate something is amiss to say the least. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 30, 2013 I Googled one pic and found out a lot more. 27 results ranging from a shemale to a dating site. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 30, 2013 "Me and my friends are on AFF soooo you can find us all on there if you want" BIG red flag... The line "Me and my friends are on AFF soooo you can find us all on there if you want" is probably not a red flag, and probably means nothing at all, depending on where you see it. Some web sites copy EVERY escort ad from Backpage, and then insert that stupid line after EVERY ad. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 30, 2013 Yet when I google the number and pictures, I come up with nothing. What would you do to research this in a smarter way. For one, learn to use Google Image Search to search images .... try the link below. Make sure to click on the camera icon as the first step; the following words should then appear: "Search by image Search Google with an image instead of text Paste image URL (?) | Upload an image" http://www.google.com/imghp?hl=en&tab=wi 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 30, 2013 And check EVERY image in an ad. If you get lots of hits on one or two images, probably can stop there, pretty much have your answer. However, I've seen situations where only one picture turned up hits. And by looking at the hits (again, don't stop at page one, dig several deep), turned up the website for a porn model, where all the other photos csme from. And when searching for a phone number, try different formats: 123-456-7890 1234567890 123.456.7890 (123)456-789 Etc And pump the phone number through Google and Bing and what other search engine you want to use. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 30, 2013 Yet when I google the number and pictures, I come up with nothing. What would you do to research this in a smarter way. When an ad looks TGTBT, and a digits google and tin-eyeing the pics comes up with nothing, I'll copy the ad text and google that. For this ad, I googled, "I'm Playful & Affectionate & Give a One of a kind EXPERIENCE! blah blah" And got the following (one out of 1100 hits). http://illinois.backpage.com/FemaleEscorts/bolutly-mzing-blond-plmt-21/17730442 Some of the pics look the same...might be, could be.. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 31, 2013 Thanks for the replies. I read all the posts and when I reopened the link, googled the images, I did find lots of other red flags. I dunno. Mistake on my part. Weird. Like I'm crazy. Did anyone else see that black helicopter just now? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 31, 2013 try this <link> Good suggestion - the nice thing about that site is it provides a "ready-made" link to Google Image Search for each picture in the ad, so you can get to the image search results in one click. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
